>Does the US not have any kind of auto regulations governing visibility at all? Apparently not, considering the topic of TFA

  They do. Just because those regulations might not be good enough, that doesn’t mean that they don’t have any at all. For a specific example, I am pretty sure that backup cameras have been mandatory on all new cars since at least 2018.

    Right, so the US now has some regulation to make sure people can see behind them. However, there seems to be basically no regulation to make sure they can see in front of the vehicle.

      To be fair, that same Chevy Camaro I am complaining about above was sold in EU and UK as well, so I wouldn’t throw stones at the US regulation being behind in this case. It only stopped being sold in 2019 in EU+UK, only the SS version, and not due to the front visibility. Sadly, seems like Chevy announced last year the end of production of Camaros in 2024 in general.

        Good point. It looks like all the regulators need to create some new regulations requiring decent forward-looking visibility, which means no more humongous hoodlines.
